B THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE- MONDAY. AUGUST JLu 1898 THIRTEENTH MEN NOT OF ONE MIND COUNTER PETITION TO THAT OF COMMISSIONED OFFICEKS. Comtaltteo of Enlisted Men Walts TTpon Colonel Coursen and Tells Him That They .Would Like to Have tho rrlvilogo of Electing ,Whother or Not They Shall Go to Cuba, If, as Humored, tho War De partment, Intends to Grant Such a Privilege EpoclaJ to tho Scranton Tribune. Camp Alger, Dunn Lorlng, Va., Aug. C8, 1893. The Falls Church wing of Camp Alger, which will not Boon be forgotten by the men of tho Second nrmy corps, ended Us existence yes terday afternoon, when the Fourth Missouri, the last regiment to depart, left those now historic grounds, that Reason for moving from hero Is the tgo a wilderness unreclaimed. The Missouri came over the usual route, the road which leads through Merri flcld and thence towards Dunn Lorlng, and passed to the rear of their former neighbors, the Thirteenth, who gave them a hearty farewell and hoped that their stay In Pennsylvania would be pleasant. Tho Westerners appreciated those evidences of good will. They left for Mlddlctown on on early afternoon train. Tho situation here contlucs to bo the great riddle; unintelligible and unsol ved. "What should and what must be done with the Second army corps Is n question which evidently perplexes the War Department much more than the capture of Santiago and tho con quest of Porto Rico -aij. The present are now what they were three months mystifying every day. Between the re moval of General Hutler and the re sulting effects, and tho reported fail ure of Mlddletown ns a camp, It is hard to say whether the men arc more surprised than disheartened. To a novice it would seem an easy matter to select a perfect camping ground, but this is just what experts liavo been unable to do after so much time and money spent In scouring tho country in every direction. Colonel Olrard, the corps surgeon, and whn It will be remembered made himself unpopular at the opening of this camp on the question of regimental hospitals, has, very likely, put a quietus on the Idea of selecting Mlddlctown as a camping ground for the entire corps. The report which he made last night came as a complete surprise to all. An pager expectancy to join their brothers of the Second division had taken pos session of ever' man in the command stationed here. All were anxious to leave and yearned for Pennsylvania, where, It was expected, an admirable fclte for a camp had been selected and was ready for occupancy. That they have been onco more sadly deceived In this hope docs not at all add to tho pleasures of life here. Dunn Lorlng was looked upon as only a temporary home and inside of a week more the men had reason to expect that they would be enjoying themselves on the soil of the Keystone state. Now they are makins a virtue out of necessity, and are trying to be contented with their lot. Tho objections of Colonel Glrard against Jllddletowr. arc htrong and specific. He says that what drinking water there is at the place is good, but that it is entirely Inadequate to supply an cntlie corps for drinking and cooking purposes. besides this great drawback the water of the river nt that place is so polluted that is It unlit for bathing. No wells either are being sunk. Under these conditions, nnd when it is remembered the chief statusof affairs continues to grow mor insufficiency of the water supply, the First division will not see Mlddletown for many a day, and perhaps, never. The strong probability that the corps may be ordered to Cuba next mouth, or In tho early part of October, may determine the war department to not disturb this division again. At any rate there is no immediate prospect of a change. INTERESTING SPECULATION. A question of vital importance is now going the rounds of this camp, and Is receiving considerable discussion by the men. They have been reading the papers, which Inform them that the war department, considering the war practically at an end, and being un willing to make those of the volunteers who would sacrifice too much by do ing garrison duty in Cuba, to go there, is beginning to consider It on advisable plan to retain all those who wish to go, and discharge those who feel that they would be making too gieat a sac rifice by remaining longer. This news has already aroused much Interesting speculation throughout the division. A vote has been taken in several regi ments to ascertain tho sentiments of the men. but this is entirely Informal nnd unofficial. A majority of the First New Jersey voted to not go, the vote standing eight hundred as against three hundred. Tho members of tho Seventh Ohio are In favor of going, while those of the Eighth Pennsyl vania are against it. The Sixty-fifth New York is divided on the question, but the full vote, which is by canvass, is not yet taken. This question has aroused a most lively discussion In tho Thirteenth. As soon as tho rumored Intentions of tho war department were known, the com missioned officers petitioned tho col onel to use his best endeavors to have the Thirteenth sent to Cuba and Porto Itlco or any of the pres ent foreign possessions of tho Unit ed States, as a garrison, and this was signed by nearly all of the com missioned officers of tho regiment. Tho petition was duly presented to Colonel Coursen, "whd received it without any comments. Then the enlisted men took up the matter from their standpoint. It was thoroughly discussed from ev ery possible view, and last night sev eral of tho non-commissioned officers of the Second battalion and a few from the First proceeded In a body to head quarters and asked for a short audi ence with tho commanding offlcer. Col onel Coursen stepped forward and was In no way displeased to meet them. Corporal Dlkemarr, of II, acted as spokesman for those of tho non-commissioned officers who went with him and shared bis sentiments. He stated that they had been Informed through the papers that the war department would give tho volunteers tho priv ilege of saying whether or not they would go to Cuba to do garrison duty, or else be discharged. If such were the case, the men, or those of them who are sacrificing much by being here even thus far, would like to give ex pression to their sentiments. They had freely volunteered with serious loss to their own fiewonal Interests, they wera prepared and willing to go to tho front to do and die, If necessary, and had even petitioned tho secretary of war to send them where they could see ac tual service, but now, that peace Is nt hand, and tho purpose of their volun teering Is accomplished, they would like to be discharged to return to their ordinary avocation. Colonel Coursen responded by saying that ho will always slick by his men, and respect their Interests nnd wishes In so far ns he can lawfully do bo. Ho Etatcd that tho departure of tho regiment to do ganlson duty In Cuba, or its mustering out, will In no way depend upon the wish of any particu lar man, or uron the petition of tho officers. That petition was to tho com manding officer of the regiment him self, and went no farther. He felt that many of tho men nro making great and patriotic sacrifices by being here, but was sure that no ono regrets this when It is considered that their ser vices nnd their sacrifices nre given to the flag and the country. If the men desired to take a vote, either orally or by canvass, he would In no vy object or attempt to prevent their action. In closing, he called to their minds tho fact that, what disposition would be made of us, would depend entirely on the wnr department and that It was practically settled some time ago that, not only the regiment, but the entire corps would bo a part of the Cuban army of occupation, a sentiment which met with approval. The members of tho Thirteenth nre, of course, sorely disappointed in being left out of tho army of lnaslon, but tho patriotism and the patience of the Thirteenth nre not yet exhausted. If they are ordered as a body, to Cuba, they will go gladly and unhesitatingly. After the words of Colonel Coursen, It Is barely prob able that this matter Mill be effective ly considered any further In the regi ment. PE.ACE NOT YET. It may not be without interest to state here that peace is not yet an ac complished fact, nnd that even Presi dent McKinley himself dots not take too much for granted In this respect. Malor General Bitlcr and Brigadier General Gobln spent yesterday in Washington and called at the white house. In the cojrse of a conversa tion on prerent prospects the resident freely gave It as his conviction that peace Is yet far off, and that In the near future 75,000 more men will be needed for the Philippines and 60,000 for Cuba. When these facts ate known few, if any of tho boys would wish to so home at this Juncture. At that in terview Major General Rutlor paid a high compliment to tho Third brigade, and told tho president that, if good sol diers were needed at any time, they could be found in that command. Biigadler General Gobln Is now not ing major general of the division. He went to the headquarters this morn ing, bringing with him his nidos, Lieu tenants Itufus K. Polk nnd W. W. Inglls. Colonel Hoffman, of the Eighth Pennsylvania, senlnr minnri nt v. Third brigade, is acting brigadier gen eral, u is not yet known whether this arrangement Is permanent or not. An order has been issued by Acting Division Commander Gobln to the ef fect that a review of the brigades of the division will take place this week. The First brigade will be reviewed to morrow, the Third an Tuesday, and the remainder of the Second brigade. Third division, composed of the First Con necticut and the Third Virginia, now temporarily attached to the Third bri gade, First division, on Wednesday. The troops will be marched to the spacious grounds of the old camp, where the review will be held. It is expected that soon thereafter a review of the whole division will take place In presence of the president. Thirty-three thousand feet of lum ber for the floors of the tents of this division Is to be ordered, another in dication that there is no immediate prospect of removal from here. CAMP GOSSIP. Private Karl Gunster, of C, was tak en home today. He was well enough to be removed for treatment at home, as his case of typhoid Is In the Inclpent stages. He was nccompanled by his father. Dr. P. F. Gunster, and left on the hospital train, which arrived In Washington this morning on Its way north from Tampa, Fla and Camp Thomas, of Chickamauga. The regular week's Inspection of nrms and of quarters took place this morning. Everything was found in good condition, but, as an extra precaution, the contents of all tents were ordered to be taken out for a thorough airing nnd sunlng. Private Edward Thomas, of C, re turned from homo today, after a thirty day leave of absence on account of sickness. Work on the wells continues night and day. The antipodes will have lit tle chance of getting a good sleep for two weeks. Privates Itionlke, Robinson and An derson, of A, nre home on sick leave. They will be gone thirty days. Private Arthur Wlnchel, of A, Is slightly indisposed. He Is being treat ed In the regimental hospital. Captain Corwln, of II, and Captain Hobllng, of C, are receiving the thanks of the boys. Both were officer of the day yesterday and today respectively. The former overhauled the old guard tent and procured a new one for the boys; the latter remodeled the plan of placing tho sentries, and thereby took three men off. Captain Robllng, of C. is officer of the day; Lieutenant Benjamin, of H, officer of the guard: Joseph Helrlegnel, of C, sergeant of the guard; Corporals, Ripple, of D, Guise, of E, and Bauer, Your friends may smile But that tired feeling Means danger.

Brigadier General Gobln is lu command, nnd ho has decided to Institute brigade drills, the ilrst of which will be held tomorrow. The gen eral Impression seems to be that these men will not be moved to Camp Meade, at Mlddletown, Pa., as reports have come to the camp which Indicate that the water supply at the former place is Inadequate.

A member of select council's com bine against Mayor Bailey is authority for the statement that the latter's nom ination of Joseph Taylor for inspector of the Providence pavement will be confirmed, probably nt the next meet ing. Tills councilman said last night: "Wo have not been opposed to Mr. Taylor. No doubt he will make a good Inspector, better than some who have been overseers of city work. Wo have been and are, however, opposed to the mayor's weakness in being led into making appointments without consult ing men who are entitled to even thnt little consideration. This Is why wo held up the Taylor nomination, but we will confirm it. "This seems to be the only way of convincing the mayor there Is In select council a majority who will have to be consulted in future." KILLED ON THE RAILROAD. Albert Clark, of Stroudsburg, Run Over at Penn Haven. The badly decomposed body of a man nbout CO years old was found on the long Lehigh Valley railroad siding op posite the passenger station at Penn Haven Junction Friday afternoon, says the Mauch Chunk Times. Owing to tho condition of tho body prompt burial was necessary. The accident happened some time on Thursday, tho body having lain ex posed to rain and sun at least forty eight hours. From a letter found on the body tho man Is believed to be Albert Clark, of Stroudsburg, an um brella mender. The body was badly mutilated, the left arm being cut off, and the right arm and left leg being horribly crushed. There was also a bad scalp wound. . For Theft of a Horse. Alexander Phillips, of the West Side, who-secured a horse and carriage from Fred Von Storch last week by giving an assumed name and then selling tho outfit to Lowry Brothers, of Taylor, for $32 was held in ball before Alder man Millar.

Work Is to Begin There at a Very Early Day. Work Is to be resumed at the North mill of the Lackawanna Iron und Steel company. The mill has been shut down for a long period, but within ten days about 800 men will be employed In and about the plant. The news Is doubly good to the employes, coming as It does so soon after resumption at the big South mill. It will be necessary in starting work at tho North mill to shut down nt the blast furnace, but operations at the latter will soon be under way again. When the furnace and the two mills uve In operation there will be employed about 2,000 men who were idle during July, some of them in May and June. The exact date for starting the North mill machinery is not known. One of tho fires at the blast furnace was banked on Saturday: another will be banked today. They will not bo permitted to go entirely out, but the stoppage of furnace work will throw ever 200 men Idle. EGGS FOR MR. BIRD. Scranton Minister's Remarks Were Not Relished. Rev. Levi Bird, of Scranton, who has made stump speeches throughout this county and two at tho corner of Main and Franklin streets, this borough, for Dr. Swallow, candidate for governor, was not received very kindly last Thursday evening when addressing a crowd at Belfast, says the Stroudsburg Times. It seems In the course of his remarks lie became very enthusiastic and spoke very plainly of the corrup tion which Is charged to the last leg islature and of Qunyism. There were several persons nearby who did not appreciate his remarks and were so much provoked that they made an attack by throwing eggs at the speaker. It did not take long for Rev. Bird to realize that the ammuni tion being fired at him were eggs, and he was very free after that In express ing his opinion as to what he thought of some of the people in that vicinity. It is said that a reward will be of fered for the arrest and conviction of the guilty parties. SAFE BLOWN OPEN. Burglars Use an Explosive in a Prlceburg Hotel.
